Samsung Galaxy Mega 6.3 LTE (Korea) SHV-E310S Firmware Overview
What is the latest SHV-E310S firmware?
E310SKSUBQA1, released January 19, 2017 with Android 4.4.2. It is a security update on bootloader binary 30. The archive holds 7 official builds across 1 region (CSC). Each one is the full stock ROM (flash file) for Odin, not an OTA patch.
Is the Samsung Galaxy Mega 6.3 LTE (Korea) still getting updates?
Most likely not: there has been no new firmware since January 2017, so Android 4.4.2 is the last version this model got. The final builds below are still the best choice for a clean reinstall.
Which Android versions did it get?
The SHV-E310S builds in the archive run Android 4.1–4.3 to 4.4.2. The earliest build we have for each version:
- Android 4.4.2: E310SKSUBNH3 (Aug 2014), 4 builds in total
- Android 4.1–4.3: E310SKSUAMJ1 (Oct 2013), 2 builds in total
Can I downgrade the SHV-E310S firmware?
Only to builds with the same bootloader binary (the Bit column) or higher. In the archive the binary of this model rose from 14 to 30:
- Binary 30 — since Oct 2013
- Binary 14 — since Jan 2017
A phone already on binary 30 rejects builds with a lower binary in Odin ("SW REV CHECK FAIL"), so it can go back to an earlier Android version only if that version has a binary 30 build. How to read a build number.
